Bay Of Dreams - Ayreon

We’ve arrived at our new home we call the Bay of Dreams

Our abode beneath the flow of endless silver streams

Will I ever be free from the ghosts of my past

Will I ever succeed to find peace… at last

Overhead, a savage sky, beyond our placid bay

Deadly rays from Sirrah’s eye, upon the seas they blaze

Will I ever adapt to this alien life

Will I ever feel trapped, merely trying to survive

Will you still be needing me?

Will you still be feeding me?

Will you still be heeding me?

Will you still let me serve when you mutate into the species roaming these

oceans

Or will I be disengaged?

My life is winding down, as if time has ceased

My world grinds to a halt and nature is at peace

My fears are fading in the wastelands of the deep

My doubts all wash away by the freely twisting streams

in the Bay of Dreams

Far beyond in the Aftertime, a new world to come

In a far-off galaxy, underneath a distant sun

I see our children, they look like you and me

They await their destiny, I can almost hear their screams

in the Bay of Dreams
